I'm confused. I thought someone sent fixes upstream. Can you test the -mm tree?

Comment 11 Michael Buesch 2008-06-22 13:59:48 UTC
Why does this take several months to get merged, btw?
I'm sorry for introducing the bug in the first place, but we immediately had a patch for this (Thanks to Aurelien Jarno). So why does it take so long to get that into linus' tree?
